I've seen it all before, time and time again
As close as I would ever dare to be
And yet without a doubt I will disagree
The sudden truth is no surprise to me

I know there is no easy way, I've said it from the start
Sometimes you've got to live the life and feel the pain
I hear a beat inside my head, I feel it in my heart
But just the thought of it is driving me insane
It's tearing me apart, it's tearing me apart

I hear a distant voice very far away
I'm silent now, I don't know what to say
I've felt a strong desire to set myself on fire
I don't think that would work for me today

I know there is no easy way, I've said it from the start
Sometimes you've got to live the life and feel the pain
I hear a beat inside my head, I feel it in my heart
But just the thought of it is driving me insane
It's tearing me apart, it's tearing me apart again

It's tearing me apart, it's tearing me apart
It's tearing me apart, it's tearing me apart
Tearing me apart, tearing me apart
